Their best bet now is a desperate, wild card Club Legend™️ appointment. Probably won’t work but it’s better than any other alternatives.

Him outpacing Spurs players at will is the biggest warning sign for their relegation yet

I’m there for the first time tomorrow night… if we win, I really think Spurs will go down.

This is why I will never vote Green. This is not a serious position nor a serious person

This's excellent from the PM
I am not prepared to commit our military service people to action, unless I am sure that what they are doing is lawful & has a viable basis. They deserve to know that their PM cares &pays attention to whether what I am asking them to do is lawful & I will always do that.

Just ran into his own player, how Chelsea haven’t invested in a competent keeper is mystifying.

En Iran, Etats-Unis et Israël accusés d’avoir attaqué une école pour filles et fait des dizaines de morts 148 personnes auraient péri dans l’attaque d’une école à Minab, dans le sud du pays. Tel-Aviv assure «ne pas avoir connaissance d’une frappe à cet endroit».

The death toll of the three missile strikes (confirmed by the Red Cross) on a girls school in Minab is now 148.

Fair enough, I missed that and apologise.
Will keep the phone further away from my reach when blood is boiling in future.

I apologise it was overly harsh, I’m aggrieved by the game but not excuse. That said, you’ve picked out Canvot specifically for criticism against Wolves & now which feels harsh on a young kid who hasn’t performed any better or worse than many of his more experienced peers.

Foul was very soft, no meaningful contact when they were inside the area and he’s outside the line of the six yard box so at a wide angle. It is not a clear goal scoring opportunity

You’re seriously digging out Canvot again? Stay classy Matt

Apart from the fact it’s not a DOGSO and it’s an incredibly weak foul, spot on.

Fair, I would argue today's responses are much more shaped by the situation in Ukraine than 9/11. Glad we disagreed amicably though, Bluesky for the win.

I also probably overstepped with a sweeping rhetorical point so apologies. That said, I don't see how this can be judged comparable with Blair's actions re. Iraq and attempts to draw parallels appear disingenuous and cynically motivated.

You might *wish* this to be true for your performative rage...but it clearly isn't supported by reality.

So much that could be said on the 4th anniversary of the full scale invasion, but it all just boils down to the ultimate admiration for Ukrainians who have endured so much, fought so hard and deserve victory, peace and prosperity. Slava Ukraini!

there's a nugget here which helps to explain Brown's character and why he was so incensed by the allegations against Mandelson from their time in office

Or that he can co-publish on his Substack? What happened to that?
